If The Creeks Don't Rise Lyrics

Rise, rise and shine
Shoes on again, it's time
You're working today, gonna have to pitch in while it's light
If the creeks don't rise, I hope to see tomorrow all right

Watch my father's hands plant some seeds again
Hear my mother call the helpers in
If the creeks don't rise, we'll work 'til the light gets dim
And if the creeks don't rise, we'll work 'til the light gets dim

The helpers starts to feel sick
The helpers think it's a trick, but
They keep working hard, to send a little money back home
Because in Mexico is where their family seeds are sown
But, now the Sun Parlour is where they call their home

Smell that water coming across the field
I wanta get some
I wanna get in the way of that great big old irrigation gun
Call all your friends
Tell your parents, they too can attend
Come on farmers, come on trees
Feel that coolness in the breeze

Because if the creeks don't rise, we're gonna have a time
Because if the creeks don't rise, we're gonna have a
We're gonna have a time

Night is coming in
All of the fields, they are empty as
We sit down to eat and I wrestle my Dad to the ground
With so much fun around, you can't even hear the sound

Rise, rise and shine
Shoes on again, it's time
My brother and I hear a sound
It sounds like a rod
The creeks have risen, risen like never before
The creeks have risen like they've done before
